Adjective or Adverb? Not all "ly" words are adverbs!
Say whether the bold-faced, underlined word is used as an adjective or an adverb. Also draw an arrow from each modifier to the word that it modifies.
Adjective: Which one? What kind? How many? about a noun.
Adverb: When? Where? How? about a verb, adjective, or another adverb.
